Youth in Philanthropy (YIP) presents its second annual Countywide Food Drive on Saturday, November 13, located at Sugar Land Town Square. Sponsored by H-E-B, the event will benefit five local food banks; East Fort Bend Human Needs Ministry, Katy Christian Ministries, Mamie George Community Center, Rosenberg-Richmond Helping Hands and Second Mile Mission Center.

YIP students from twelve Fort Bend High Schools are coming together to stock the pantries of local food banks and organize a canned food sculpting competition. An award ceremony will take place at 2:30 pm.

Show your philanthropic community spirit donating your non-perishable food items Saturday from 10 am – 3 pm at either Sugar Land Town Square or the convenient drive-by drop-off available at City Hall Drive.

For more information about YIP and how to get involved or provide support, contact David Crowl at 281-491-2497 or david@fortbendcc.org.
